What kind of art inspires you?

On the next Your Call, we'll speak with a variety of artists about the healing and empowering aspects of art and creativity. The late historian Howard Zinn said the role of the artist is to transcend the world of the establishment and to escape what is handed down by the government and the media. How does art help you cope with our chaotic and unjust world? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What have you seen lately that's inspired you? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Jo Kreiter, artistic director of Flyaway Productions

Meklit Hadero, Ethiopian-born singer, musician, and cultural activist

Josef Norris, founder and director of Kid Serve
